Installation Instructions
Your balance/scale is designed to
provide reliable weighing results under
normal ambient conditions. When
choosing a location to set up your balance/scale, observe the following so
that you will be able to work with
added speed and accuracy:
Set up the balance/scale on a stable,
even surface
Avoid placing the balance/scale in close
proximity to a heater or otherwise
exposing the balance/scale to heat or
direct sunlight
Protect the balance/scale from drafts
that come from open windows or doors

mean shown in the selected weight unit;
a triangle indicates that this is a calculated value
– You can set the number of subweighing
operations performed in the operating menu:
See “Configuring the Balance/Scale”
– Press v for at least 2 sec. to display
the preset number of subweighing operations

Care and Maintenance
Service
Regular servicing by a Sartorius technician will
extend the service life of your balance/scale and
ensure its continued weighing accuracy. Sartorius
can offer you service contracts, with your choice of
regular maintenance intervals ranging from 1 month
to 2 years. The frequency of the maintenance intervals depends on the user’s operating conditions and
the tolerance limits.
Repairs
Repair work must be performed by trained service
technicians. Any attempt by untrained persons
to perform repairs may lead to hazards for the user.
Cleaning
!Disconnect the balance/scale from the AC adapter
and unplug any interface cables that are connected
to the balance/scale
!Make sure that no liquid enters the balance/scale
housing
!Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents (solvents
or similar agents)
§ Clean the balance/scale using a piece of cloth which
has been wet with a mild detergent (soap)
§ After cleaning, wipe down the balance/scale with
a soft, dry cloth
Removing and Cleaning the Weighing Pan:
● Lift up and remove the weighing pan together
with the pan support by gripping them from under
the shield ring. Make sure that you do not damage
the weighing system in doing so.
21
Safety Inspection
If there is any indication that safe operation of the
balance/scale with the AC adapter is no longer
warranted:
§ Turn off the power and disconnect the equipment
from AC power immediately
> Lock the equipment in a secure place to ensure that
it cannot be used for the time being
Safe operation of the balance/scale with the AC
adapter is no longer ensured when:
– there is visible damage to the AC adapter
– the AC adapter no longer functions properly
– The AC adapter has been stored for a relatively long
period under unfavorable conditions
In this case, notify your nearest Sartorius Service
Center or the International Technical Support Unit
based in Goettingen, Germany. Maintenance and
repair work may only be performed by service technicians who are authorized by Sartorius and who
– have access to the required maintenance manuals
– have attended the relevant service training
courses
Instructions for Recycling the Packaging
To ensure adequate protection for safe shipment,
your balance/scale has been packaged to the extent
necessary using environmentally friendly materials.
After successful installation of the balance/scale,
you should return this packaging for recycling
because it is a valuable source of secondary raw
material.
For information on recycling options, including
recycling of old weighing equipment, contact your
municipal waste disposal center or local recycling
depot.
